This hotel is our favorite in the area. The bedding is wonderful, and the bathroom is beautiful, clean, and well cared for. The location cannot be beat with downtown a few steps away allowing for shopping and restaurants. There is also a bar/restaurant on site that often has entertainment on the weekends. We highly recommend this hotel.
